Abstract

Wasting remains a nutritional problem among children under five in Indonesia, including Gempol Village, Cirebon Regency. This community service program aimed to improve mothers’ knowledge of wasting prevention and skills in preparing locally sourced supplementary food. Conducted on June 25, 2025, the program involved 17 mothers of children under five identified as having or being at risk of wasting. Activities integrated the “Ibu Sadar Gizi” nutrition education program and the “Dapur Sehat Balita” (DASABA) cooking demonstration, featuring pumpkin kue lumpur. Evaluation used a one-group pre-test–post-test design to assess knowledge and a hedonic test to measure product acceptability based on taste, texture, aroma, and color. The mean knowledge score increased descriptively by 0.65 points, from 8.82 ± 1.62 to 9.47 ± 1.00; however, the difference was not statistically significant (Wilcoxon Z = −1.549; p = 0.121; r = 0.38). Product acceptability was high: 94.1% of participants strongly liked its taste, 100% its texture, 94.1% its aroma, and 88.2% its color. Participants also actively engaged in the cooking demonstration. The program demonstrated good acceptance of locally sourced supplementary food and a descriptive improvement in knowledge scores. Further evaluation is needed to determine its effects on feeding practices and children’s nutritional status.
